If you go to this site http://www.ping.be/bios/index.html then they have a list of motherboard manufactures by bios number.

When you turn your PC on, hit the pause button on your keyboard (pause/break) on post, then write down the numbers at the bottom of the screen for your bios. Also check what manufacturer of bios you have Award or AMi.

Go to the site, look for a match on the number and then it will tell you what manufacture the board is.

Hope this helps.

It could be a slight miss print on the sight. best thing to do is when you have located the manufacturer of the board is to try to email the manufacturers of possible and see what they say.

Alternativly that site i gave you has also got a forum and contact addresses, you could try posting something on there to get a response.

Glad I could help.
